Hi Rosina,
It's a really interesting question... I think the idea of a national registry for cured symptoms would be tricky, since I don't know how you'd include any sort of reliability check, e.g. whether the submitting homeopath is reliable, and possibly significant details about the case. Even with our repertories mistakes do creep in, and that could be so much compounded by having many people making unverified entries...?? Aside from that, the question of cured symptoms is one I find lots of room for puzzlement in! Someone (who? where??) expressed the opinion that any remedy could *potentially* cure any symptom, *if* it is sufficiently well suited to the patient. It sounds as tho Irene's experience with plumbum and granulomas goes beyond that, tho--sounds like she has found plumbum to *frequently* have relevance to cases with granulomas, which does sound like something that ought to be in the reps... I would think that the symptom should/would/might(?) also have relationship to the rest of the remedy's symptom picture, and I'm wondering (doing a quick scan of rubrics, but only quick) how granulomas might fit into plumbum's. Perhaps with plumbum's dryness, constriction, "drawing inward", emaciation, abscesses, hypertrophy (tho I only see it in that single general rubric), induration (tho with *very* little detail), tumors, slow healing--it does seem like granulomas sort of fit in with the rest of the crowd?? Irene--I don't see a rubric called granuloma--what one(s) do you use, and does my thinking above seem reasonable to you? One thing we were taught emphatically, is that "The repertory is completely incomplete," and the possibility is always there that the needed remedy is missing from rubrics that do suit the case well. So yeah, as Irene said, one symptom or one rubric should never be allowed to make or break a case...

With that I do not agree. The remedy needs to fit the CURRENT case - not the prior innate constitutional type, which can be different. If Nux fits the case, some irritability may well be seen during the case when the case starts too ill to have it; still later the innate constitutional type may emerge and be OTHER than Nux-v. In this situation there will not necessarily be irritability before the major diseased state. The Nux-v disease state can be arrived at from many directions. What you suggest can be expected to apply in a Nux-v ICT (innate constitutional type) - not other ICTs. Namaste, Irene -- Irene de Villiers, B.Sc AASCA MCSSA D.I.Hom/D.Vet.Hom. P.O.

For example my use of Plb (and soem others) is in an illness universally considered incurable, and so it is important to tell others working with the illness. There must be lots of such remedies used by homeopaths all over. A central reporting would be great. Does Radar or Reference Works include such an option in their software updates? (Their software does allow for an author of remedies/rubrics added.) > If not then perhaps it is time to set up a dedicated national or > international register where homeopaths can report cured symptoms from > unlisted remedies and where other homepaths can refer?

My son has been detected with H1N1 positive.*
Symptoms: Hallucinations (people yelling at him),* kept crying that people are yelling at me, severe headache, high fever, stomach ache. Surprisingly, the*allopath*asked if any medication is being given.* I mentioned that I have been giving him Aconite for the fever. She asked me if I was interested in Tamiflu shots or leave it alone.* I preferred to leave it alone.* She also advised that it is better to leave it alone since the Tamiflu shots have several side effects. I bought oscillococcinum (quiet expensive) from Rite Aid and succussed it in a 500ml bottle with 4 pills.* In between, I have been giving them Aconite and loads of water, warm orange juice.**Son*is better - no fever, stomach upset, is on liquid diet.* Daughter*who was showing signs of H1N1 is doing good with the same treatment. Will China protect*them with the dehydration.* On several occassions, I have used it successfully for very high fevers, parched lips and craving for water. Regards, Kotti |

I would like to add to this. My son (17 years old) was exposed to H1N1 - his debate partner came to a tournament very sick and they worked together for 2 days in close quarters, but he did not tell me until it was over. I immediately started him on Gelsemium 30C in water, twice daily, beginning Saturday night. On Saturday, he said he felt achy but he had no fever or any other symptoms.
He continued on the Gels twice daily, and on Tuesday morning woke up and said he was achy, had a headache, and his stomach was not precisely nauseated but more like cramps. He stayed home from school and slept for most of the day, so obviously there was some fatigue as well. On this day I switched him to Ipecacuanha 30C in water. He took it 3-4 times that day. By evening, the stomach involvement was gone. Still no fever, no coughing, no other symptoms - just general achiness, headache, and fatigue. At that point, I switched back to Gels 30C. He took it last night and this morning (Wed morning). He is back in school (important day) but may stay home tomorrow if he's still under the weather. My question is - could this be very mild H1N1? Should I continue with Gels or Ip? The rest of the family is taking Gels 30C in water twice daily as a preventive, since he came home with the exposure news on Saturday. Does this sound appropriate?

Hi Tracy,
What I keep reading is that the vast majority of cases of H1N1 *are* minor, and sometimes barely even a nuisance; it's only a minority that become severely ill. I read here and there that Vitamin D has a *strong* preventative and curative effect on flu in general, and so presumably also this variant--recommendation I read is to take at least 2,000 IU daily during the winter when *not* sick, and increase to 5,000 IU daily--or more--when ill. But for remedy, I'd say see how he does. Gels seems reasonable; if he seems to need more remedy, and the Gels seems to help, then I'd continue, or he may not need it--how is he by now? My son had a touch of the same, just dry cough and mild-to-moderate nausea, fatigue, lasted a few days, but never got very bad. Unfortunately I was away for most of it, so didn't get details, and didn't give him any remedy, but he didn't seem to need anything other than rest. The only unusual thing about this was that my son doesn't usually catch things! Hopefully this means they're "protected" now? :-) (Okay, okay, better not assume anything...) Kotti, I'm glad yours is better now--sounds like he had a rougher ride! I hadn't heard the "delusions" mentioned as one of the symptoms, but will keep it in mind now. Was that while the fever was highest, do you know? :-) Shannon On Nov 4, 2009, at 2:36 PM, tnewman (AT) everestkc (DOT) net wrote: > I would like to add to this.

This is what I heard and is true in the case of my son:
The flu is mild the first time.* Cough, sore throat are the first symptoms.* Goes away in 2 to 3 weeks.* After a gap of 2 weeks, it comes back with a bang,* sore throat, high fever, etc. Is that what many of you are experiencing with your patients? Today both of my kids are on their feet and have gone to the school and no call from the school yet.* Daughter is still weak and needs lot of fluids to keep herself from not being dehydrated.* Son still has the cough which seems to be adamant and not giving up.
